The pressure of opening night, what’s that? MeA’rah O’Neal, began her Florida Gators campaign with a blowout win over Florida Atlantic Owls. The youngest kid of the O’Neal family had mother Shaunie in attendance. And father, Shaquille O’Neal, was in stands for son Shaqir, as both kids played at the same time. Now ahead of game 2, Meezy posted on social media, and the family added their heartwarming comments.

The Instagram post had 1 video and 5 photos with the caption, “issa gday🎱 let’s go.” She uploaded the same on her story with the caption, “game dayyyyy.” Shaqir too added the post to his story and also left a heart, to which his younger sister replied, “@shaqironeall ❤️🫂.” Amirah also added her reaction, “Yuh yuhhh ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️,” and mother Shaunie left words of encouragement.

“That’s right!!!!” For the game day against the Florida A&M Rattlers, Shaquille O’Neal’s daughter’s bling caught everyone’s eye. It is a custom-made Gators logo with a chain. She also has a similar ring, which she flaunted a few months ago. In August, in collaboration with Status Jewel, the 18-year-old wrote, “@mearahoneal_ Had to come right at @statusjewel for my custom GATOR Ring🐊 One of One 💎 #status.”

Even though both their kids played their first games of the season, Shaunie Henderson explained her pain. “The moments I wish I could split myself in half…. Both my babies game openers tonight. I’ll be sitting in the stands watching one while holding my phone watching the other. MOTHERHOOD! I love every minute of it. Cheering for both at the same time!” She attended Meezy’s game and she did not disappoint with her performance.

In the 20 minutes, the guard scored 7 points, 5 rebounds, 2 blocks, and 1 assists. Unlike Shaquille O’Neal, she was 100% from the FT line but could improve her overall shooting. With 2-8 inside the paint and 1-7 from beyond the arc. But that’s not the only thing she needs to improve on, as her mother recently described a worrying habit.

Shaquille O’Neal’s daughter has the same problem as her dad

“Me’Arah for instance, like she’s terrible at budgeting and I just don’t think she finds the priority in doing it because she knows we’re there to to do everything for her.” Shaunie Henderson spoke on The GrOOw Zone podcast, about having deeper money talks with her kids now. She even admitted that she herself wasn’t good with budgeting either, and sometimes relies on her husband Keion Henderson.

For Shaquille O’Neal, the learning was different. First, he fought with his father for not agreeing to enter the NBA. On his podcast, the LA Lakers legend revealed the conversation, “He said ‘nope’, and I said ‘why?’ He said ‘bro, we’ve been broke for 17 years; we can be broke for 18 years.” At the time, he was upset as he was asked by Sgt. Phillip Harrison to not participate in the league.

Mother, Dr. Lucille, explained with the help of a practical problem. “My mom said balance a checkbook, and I couldn’t. I couldn’t balance that.” Shaquille O’Neal continued, “She said, ‘Baby, she said, listen. You can do what you want to do, but you’re not ready.'” That one-year gap was a learning curve and the 4x NBA Champion now created a wealth of $500 million.
